Everybody needs to just stop being assholes. $200 wouldnt even make a dent in a deposit for their own place. Get over it.
That's half a month's rent where I live... and 2/3 of the deposit.
This. If money is (one of the many ever-changing) factors in why she has yet to break free of an unhealthy living situation, $200 certainly would make a significant dent. I'm assuming my financial situation looks starkly grave in comparison to yours because an extra $200 (well spent/saved) would make a huge dent in anything right now.
I don't have much to add but, OP, you are an idiot. You asked for/opened yourself up for opinions the minute you decided to air your dirty laundry on an Internet forum.
So appropriate. Especially since I can't count the number of times someone has said "it's like they have their own mean girls club" because we're just telling it how it is.
Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
I keep thinking about the person@nicoleee89 who basically said $200 is no big deal. My husband & I make very good money and $200 for a vet bill or some other necessary part of living & taking care of business wouldn't even register, but I will never let myself get to the point where $200 on some bullshit I don't even need is not a big deal. I grew up fairly poor & do not take what I have now for granted. That is the quickest way to living beyond your means. I think @nicoleee89 needs some budgeting lessons as well.
